In China, after Typhoon Eagle No. 5 landed in the southeast on the 28th local time, damage continued as it moved north along the east.

Heavy rain warnings have been issued for the first time in 12 years in Beijing and the northeastern region.

Muddy water cascades through the houses of a rural village.

I can’t tell if this is a road or a river.

As the roads are flooded, people are struggling to get the stopped vehicles out.

The water in the underground parking lot was overflowing.

Due to the influence of this year’s fifth typhoon ‘Eagle’, heavy rain has been pouring in northern and eastern regions such as Beijing, China.

The China Meteorological Administration predicted that yesterday’s rainfall in Hebei, Beijing and Tianjin would be up to 250-400 mm.

A red alert, the highest level of heavy rain warnings, has also been issued.

This is the first red alert in 12 years since 2011.

The direct economic loss tallied so far from this typhoon has exceeded 3 billion yuan, or 530 billion won in our money.

This rain was predicted to subside from tomorrow, but concerns about rain damage are growing as Typhoon Kanun No. 6 is heading toward China again.
